shocking accident that has been reported
from Midland tunnel for months occurred
near the west portal on Saturday last,

the explosion of giant powder. On the
occasion Of the accident he was dis.

giant powder which was to be used by
the drill forces aud procuring IL started
ITO retuEnwheE the men heard an ex-
Iploson mingled with a shrek and rush
ing out found the dismembered form of
the youth lying about the approach of
the tunnel The sight was a sickening
one. The flesh and bones were scattered
in every direction while there was
scarcely enough left intact to identify the
youth. It's probable that having shoul-
dered the box Of powder the boy started
for the tunnel aud stumbling caused q
jar that exploded the giant powder.

The Butler weekly times. (Butler, Mo.) 1881-1918, 1887-12-28

By far the most novel, convenient
and valuable business calendar for
1883 is the Columbia Bicycle Calea-
dar and Stand, just issued by the
Pope Manufacturing company, Of
Boston, Mass. In this calendar a
new departure has been made, de-
cidedly unique and different from any
previous attempt in calendar con-
struction. The calendar proper is
in the shape of pad, containing
366 leaves, one for each day in the
year to be torn off daily. The pad
rests upon a portable stand, which
takes bur little more room than the
pad itself, and when placed upon
the desk or writing table the entire
surface of the date leaf is brought
directly, and left constantly, before
the eye, furnishing date and memo
randa, impossible to be overlooked.

A Mammoth Cave Discovery.

A Mammoth Cave Discovery.
Toledo, O., Dec. 21.-A report
from Locust Point, Ottawa country,
4 town on the shores of Lake Erie,
tells of the discovery of new MAN.
mouth cave there. The shores of
Lake Erie, along the edge of Ottawa
county, are wild, rough and rocky,
and have never been fully explored.
A french fisherman named DeShelter
found the cave last summer while
=, winning at the creek. In diving
Il le was carried under a rock and
el.me up on the other side in q vast
h tsern. Later he made another visit
a Iith a lantern, and found, that
rough the cavern flowed small
. |ream, which apparently united with
:. e waters of Lake Erie long dis
! lnce to the west. Following this
ream for distance of 100 yards,
leShelter found himself on the brink
% a hugh cylindrical shaft, sunk s.
: I,or of the cavern. The mouth of
10 is shaft was twenty feet in circum-
:, trence and was seemingly without
! I'D. Near the MYSTERIOUS shaft was
4 ,narrow opening, and passing into
s his DeShelter discovered a room in
he cave much larger than the first.
i 'igures of limestone and formations
!, ndisturbed for ages impended the
rogress of the explorer, but in
j very direction he discovered similar
penings which confirmed him in
!, ,eief that the cave extends far un
4 der the waters of Lake Erie and that
it is possibly connected with Perry't
cave at Put-in-Bay.

MANS INCONSISTENCY.
A Well Founded Feminine Attack on Va
rious Masculine Weaknesses.

A writer IN the Boston Trarelsr devoted
third of a column to prove that
woman's weakness is her foot. Well. asks
an irate lady contributor in the Indian
apolis Sentinel, what if it is? Have men
q weakness? We might call them eccen-
tricties, peculiaritie5 or Inconsistencies,
end their name is legion. Did you ever
hear man snore? Did you ever hear
that same individual acknowledge that he
snored? Certainly not. Did you ever
know man to acknowledge that he was
vain of his personal appearenceP Never,
but he never was know to like the young
lady who remarked that he was not hand
some. Did you ever know man who did
not say to his wife that he ''liked tq
see lady dressed plain and ses-
sible." But when a lady in plain and
sensible dress enters car where this
same man is seated, and she may stand
all hour before he offers her his seat.
Did you ever hear man talk about
"abominable bangs" and tell his wife that
1t would not be exactly conducive to his
personal safety and peace of mind, if she
should trim her front hair, that wouldn't
i>irt with any girl with bangs that would
notice him.
Did you ever see q men get a little bit
sick that didn't think he was going to die,
and require the entire attention of the
tnmily, the near relatives and the neigh.
bors? In a few days after the wife has a
much worse attack, but because she
patiently bears it and tries to keep up,
don't he invariably say, "You might COM
plain if you should ever get as sick as l was
last week"
Did you ever see man who did not pos
sess sublime contempt for the gossip"
Of women that didn't get all the news"
at his business place or club long before
his wife hears it through the gossip chan
neis?
Did you ever hear man find fault with
himself? Net much, when there is gener-
ally some one convenient to shoulder the
blame quietly. This might be called their
greatest inconsistency, and has been
handed down from Adam, subject to all
modern improvements. These evidences
Of strength i'll men could be enumerated
Indefinitely. In proportion to the weak.
ness Of women they are ten to one.

LYNCH LAW JUSTIFIED.
d Few Words About the Human Hog That

Picks His Teeth at Table.
If it is i'll bred and vulgar for man
at a restaurant table TO rattle his knife

writer in tie Chicago Journal. Twenty
years ago it was well understood by all
decent people that the teeth were not 10

duction OF the wooden tooth-pick has
changed all this. This highly useful little
article is almost omnipresent. 1t has an
honored place on the counter of the hotel
and restaurant Office, and on the very din
ner-tahle itself. Encouraged by its pres

moments in excavating the debris of his

eaching his back teeth, sometimes tooth

when the police will lie rung in to arrest
such a creature. To tbs shame of suck

How Fatigue Operates,

After study of some years, Prof.
Mosso, of Turin, finds that when fl.
tigue is carried beyond the moderate
stage, at which it is decidedly bene-
fetal, it subjects the blood to decom-
posing process through the infiltratior
into it OF substances which act rs pol
sons, and which, When injected into
the circulation of healthy. animals, in.
duce uneasiness and AL the signs OF ex'
cessive exhaustion. When within tile
resisting power Of the subject, fatigue
has its pleasures and even Joys, these
being the expression of the organic
consciousness that bodily loss of tissue
is being balanced by reconstruction.
Mossos experiments were performed
on italian soldiers, and they proved
among the other results, that the
stature and power Of the modern var
rior are fully equal to those OF the -.
cient Roman IrGrcter.
